Summary

ConvertX through 0.19.0 contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability that allows authenticated users to read server files because src/converters/pandoc.ts invokes Pandoc without the --sandbox flag. Attackers can upload a reStructuredText document with an include directive naming an absolute path, convert it, and download output containing the referenced file's contents.

Risk Assessment

The risk includes disclosure of sensitive server files, potentially leading to data confidentiality breaches and potential privilege escalation.

Recommendation

Add the --sandbox flag to Pandoc invocations and restrict document conversion access to trusted users.
